Behavior Therapy (CBT) on Mental Health for Adults with Pulmonary Fibrosis

(IRB#: IRB_00161709)

Pulmonary fibrosis is a disease that causes the lungs to scar over time making it hard to breathe. Behavioral therapy (CBT) is a way to help people make changes in their life that may reduce stress from the disease. Research is needed to see if CBT improves mental health and is effective using an app on a persons mobile device such as a cell phone. The information we gain may aid future patients.
